ANNOUNCEMENT
In view of certain CTltiCJsm that h a s arisen dur·
ing the past few weeks since the opening of the
footba ll season at Tulane Stadium as a result of
some inconvenience caused the patrons through
e rection of the additions to the stadium and the
manner in which it has been necessary fo r the pa­trons
to enter at various gates, a stateme nt was
issued jointly today by Dr. Wilbur C. Smith, Di·
rector of Athletics of Tulane University, and Her­bert
A. Benson, President of the New Orleans Mid­W
inter Spor ts Association, who is a lso the archi­tect
of the enlargement of the stadium now under
way. Both Dr. Smith and Mr. Benson stated that
they are thoroughly in accord that the public should
have every consideration but feel that after a thor­ough
explanation of the many intricacies attendant
to the staging of large ball games and the handling
of tremendous crowds th a t a better understanding
would result th rou gh the issuance of such state·
ment and, at the same time, stated that they are
thoroughly appreciative of the understanding that
has been shown by many many thousands w ho have
been able to understand su ch problems and a re
cognizant of the great p iece of c ivic work being ac·
complished through the enlargement of the stadium.
The fu ll statement of Dr. Smith and Mr. Benson
fo llows:
We desire to respectfully express our sincere re·
grets for the temporary inconveniences to the pub·
lic, brought about by the stadium construction
work in progress. T hese inconveniences have
largely centered around t he inability to build direct
walks connecting the North (Barrett Street) and
South (Willow Street) ends of the stadium, both
on the East and West side s. Inasmuch as Tulane
drastically reduced ticket prices to permit as many
adults a nd children as possible to enjoy the great
1939 schedule, w e are sure that the public will
exercise patience and appreciation of these tem­porary
problems. We are a lso sure that all of our
people appreciate the new Tulane policy which
permits a greater turnou t than ever before of both
c hildren and adults to the games. We have like­wise
pushed the construction to the greatest pos·
sible extent, in order that we might cooperate in
making it possible for more children and high
school students to enjoy the games.
We are happy being able to announce that the
entire South (Willow Street) e nd of the stadium
will be ready this Saturday for the Tulane-Ford­ham
game, making it possible to throw that entire
new section of I 5,000 seats open to grammar
school and high school pupils. Tulane is changing
the high school seating arrangement, effective this
week, and at all remaining games this year to give
them more seating space, and at the same time to
accommodate more fans in.-the low priced reserved
seat sections at the North (Barrett Street) end.
Without direct walks .• which we have previously
referred to, connecting both the North (Barrett
Street) and South (Willow Street) ends, Tulane
has faced a very difficult seating problem, in view
of the fact that grammar school children, high
school students. Tulane-Newcomb students and
faculty, and the East and West side rese rved seat
ticket purchasers and box seat holders enter from
the South (Willow Street) end, which taxes this
street, its gates, and its ramp facilities to capacity.
4
In other words, Willow Street and its gates musr
take care of approximately 20,000 fans within a
p e riod of approximately forty-five minutes on the
Saturday of a big game.
It is estimated that on the Saturday of the
L. S. U. game, and possibly the Alabama and Ford­ham
games, that these gates on Willow Street will
be called upon to handle as many as 30,000 people.
It therefore becomes obvious that it would have
been impossible to handle the North (Barrett
Street) circle ticket holders through the Willow
Street e nd, in view of the absence of these direct
walks back of the East and West side stands to con·
nect the North (Barrett Street) circle with Wil­low
Street. Moreover, it would have added both to
the congestion a nd confusion to have permitted the
North circle ticket holders to have entered f rom
the Willow Street gate at the Clemson and Auburn
games, and then to have suddenly discontinued this
practice at the Fordham game, when the new high
school section will be ready for Tulane" s use.
We desire to express the hope that the public
will continue to demonstrate its patience and co­operation
with us in making the best of our pres
ent facilities, and feel sure that as soon as the sta­dium
construction is completed that everyone will
be thoroughly satisfied with the system of in gress
and egress.
We would a lso like to commen t brieRy upon the
new and modernized score board which has been
erected at the stadium. T h is score board was con·
structed only after a very careful survey of score
boards in the leading stadiums of the country and
is simila r to the boards in use at Michigan .• Illinois,
Yale, Northwestern, Notre Dame, the Yankee Sta­dium,
the Rose Bowl, and Polo Grounds, as well
as scores of o thers. T he old type of score board
has become outmoded because o f the modern pub­lic
address system and the inability to operate the
old type of board efficiently, due to the growing
custom of I 1-men eubstitutions several times dur­ing
a game.
We are confident that as soon as the New Or­leans
publ ic becomes accustomed to the present
type of score board, it will become p referred to
that which was fo rmerly in use in the stadium.
Of necessity, the top section of the present press
box will have to be removed to make room for the
new top double-decking of the West Side stand
a n d will be out of use for the approaching Tulane·
Fordham game, as well as the balance of the games
of this season so as to permit a complet ion of t he
stadium in t ime for the January I st Sugar Bowl
Classic. It is regrettable that th is inconvenience is
made n ecessary, particularly at this time when so
many visiting and prominent spor ts writers will be
here for the Fordham game. We know, however,
that these writers will appreciate the circumstances
that make t his inconvenience imperative and that
they together with the local writers who have been
so understandin g in all of our p roblems will uncom­plainingly
utilize the temporary p ress box set-up
at the remaining T u lane games, especially in reali­zation
that the new press box atop the top deck of
the West stand, that will have space for 250 writ­ers
comfortably seated, will, when p u t in use, be
one of the finest press boxes in the nation.

FORDHAM
THOMAS BENNETT, Gua rd. A sophomore who
impressed the coaches in Spring practice and is
very apt to see frequent duty in the major games.
Starred in football, swimming and baseball at
Pee kskill Military Academy.
JAMES BLUMENSTOCK, Ha lfback. Jimmy Blu­menstock
lists as his greatest thrill an airplane ride
over Mount Washington. Very few people would
prefer a n airplane ride to watching Jimmy Blumen­stock
play football when it comea to thrills. A
g reat kicker and passer and a fine runner, he will
divide regular left halfback duties with Len Eah­mont.
One of the finest prospects ever to wear the
Maroon. Life guard at Palisades Park all summer.
Nickname-Biacky.
DEL DAVIS, End. Del comes from Cough­lin
Hig h, which sent Fordham Captain Billy Kry­wicki.
Caught and played outfield on Freshman
baseball team. Likes to fish and hunt.
LOUIS DeFILIPPO, Center. As a sophomore
last year Lou carried on in the traditional manne r
of such Ram centers as Siano, Dell Isola and
Wojciechowicz. A big rangy fellow who digs into
them when h e tackles. Did a g reat job against Pitt.
an amateur mechanic and horticulturist.
V INCENT DENNERY, End. Won a le tt er as a
soph last year, alte rnating with Ray Riddick at
right end. Was out of the Pitt game with touch of
flu and Ram missed him. Turned in fine job against
St. Mary's but had in and out moments in some of
the other games. Received seve re leg burns from
accidentally stepping on third ra il at age of twelve
and has been moving fast ever since. A tough
H a rp who can play football.
LEONARD ESHMONT, Halfback. A great run­ner,
Eshmont, as a soph, swept into the Fordham
football picture like a maelstrom. Crowley says h e
has never seen a ball-carrier as good. Sutherland
called him greater than Grange at corresponding
stage of sophomoric development. Gained 83 I
yards rushing, first place for the nation. A bashful
kid who loves the movies a nd won't attend football
dinners and F banquets because the adulation of
old grads and others embarrasses him.
ANGELO FORTUNATO. Quarterback. "Butch"
has divided the quarterback duties with Bill Kry­wicki
for the last two years. A good pass receiver
a nc;l blocker but inclined to turn in a mediocre
performance now and then. His great catch of a
Joe Gronski pass was the clutch play that enabled
Fordham to beat Texas Christian two years ago.
RALPH FRlEDGEN. Fullback. More or legs, this
quiet, good-looking lad from Ha rrison, N. Y., is
favorite guy on the Fordham football team. The
reason is that he hasn't worlds of ability but by
hard work and courage not only won the second
strong fullback job last year, but played very well
whenever he was in action especially against Ore­gon
and Pitt, a nd won himself a letter. Ralph was
born in the Bronx, likes to hunt and ride and reads
O'Henry in his spare moments.
JAMES HAGGERTY, Center. Red saw plenty of
action as DeFilippo's first relie f man last year and
turned in acceptable performances at a ll times to
win his le tter. Red's severest critic on the gridiron
is hi s mother and between her and Crowley, he has
become a good college player.
JOH HA 0 , End. The Irish are far from
extinct in the Bronx. Take Jack Hannon for in­stance.
End Coach Ed Kosky considers him a fine
prospect who should vie with Yudikaitis substi-

tute right end duties. An a ll -around football, base­ball
and track athlete at West Orange (N. J .) High
School and S eton Hall Prep before a rriving at
Fo rdham.
JAMES HAYES, Guard. This native Brooklyn­ite
is the last remnant of the famous Seven Blocks
of Granite, the unscored-through line of Fordham's
undefeated 193 7 season. He played outstanding
ball last year and saved the St. Mary' a game with a
great tackle of Herb Smith as th e Gael fullback
was apeeding down the sidelines to n touchdown
after inte rceptin g a Ram pass.
PETER HOLOV AK, Halfback. Pe te is a fine
runner, probably the best on the squad next to Esh­mont,
but a chronic knee injury and dive rse de­fensive
defects have kept him on the s idelines a
great pa rt of the time. P ete won the Rensselaer
Po ly Medal for highest h onors in Science and Math
a t Lanaford ,Pa.) High before reaching Fordham.
STEPHEN HUDACEK, T ackle. Steve will be in
the fight for left tackle. Was born in Minnesota
but Be rnie Bierman misaed out on him when the
Hudaceka moved to Plymouth (Pa.) when Steve
was a lad. Fair discus thrower.
STEPHEN KAZLO, Halfback. Steve has done a
bang-up job at left-halfback for two years and now
moves over to r ight-half as running mate for Es h­mont
and Blumenstock. A ball-player's ball-player,,
who can run, pass and gick acceptably a nd does a
workman-like blocking and tackling job. Came to
Fordham as a basketball s tar but developed into
prominent football man instead.
WILLIAM KRYWICKJ, Quarterback. Captain of
the Rams. It was a foregone conclusion at the end
of last season that Billy Krykicki would be e lected
Captain of the 1939 team. He and Dom Prin cipe
are the two best athletes in the Senior class and
Dom also was rewarded with next year's baseball
captaincy. Bill does everything well on the grid­iron,
handles punts gamely and smartly, blocks,
tackles, catches passes, defend against the pass and
runs the team ingeniously. A fine fellow who can
get the boyes to give out for him. Has been regu­lar
catcher on ball team as well as first string sig­nal-
caller for two years. His is a n Alger story.
Both as a quarterback and catcher, he was lost in
the shufAe a t the beginning o fhis sophomore year.
He did not impress the coaches or anyone else at
that time. But C rowley and Coffey know about
him now and are glad of it, as are thousands of
Fordham followers.
JOHN KUZMA , Tackle. Little Sir Wrecker,
How Do You Do? T his two-hundred and twenty
pound bundle of mayhem played twenty-seven out
of a possible twenty-eight periods at left tackle last
season and the Maroon· s opponents were rather
put out about the whole thing. Fast, agile, a great
blocker and d efensive player, he was the best soph­omore
tackle-yes, including Sarno and Miskinis
-that Rose Hill has seen. Only the fact that he
was a sophomore k ept him off the All-American
teams. Has a terri fic appetite as well as a deep­seated
yen for combat.
JOSEPH LUCAS, Guard. Joe was the best guard
on the 193 7 F rosh eleven but was on the sidelines
all of last year with a bad ankle. Hails from
Mike Kochel's old camping grounds, Bloomfield
(N. J.) High. One of the best bets for regular
work at guard.

( Continued from page 7 )
THOMAS MACDOUGALL, Halfback. Mac
should make a real bid for right-halfback this year.
He has plenty of courage, runs fai rly well and
throws a good pass. Kazlo a nd the others should
know he' se a round. Mac was developed at Bridg·
ton Academy by Jackie Fisher, former Fordham
quarterback brilliant. So was George Crandinette,
incidentally. Mac's hobbies are pbying the Jew's
Harp and fishing.
JOH ME APACE,. Guard. Len Eshmont's
room mate and chum but his claim to fame doesn't
end there. He is a good, blocky running guard,
who came along nicely as a sophomore and will
have tomething to say about the ultimate disposi­tion
of the guard posts this year. He and Esh­mont
were Co-Capta ins of Mount Carmel T own­ship
(Pa.) High. Likes to do cross word puzzles.
JA MES NOBLE, Quarterback. Jimmy divided
the signal-calling job with Claude Pieculewicz on
last year's F rosh team a nd showed himself to be a
good prospect. Like Blume nstock, oble' s pet
hobby is listening to good orchestras. Admits he
waa a brat as a kid but went to live with t hirteen
cousins for a wh ile. They taught him how to take
it a nd made an athlete out of h im.
MRTIN PETROSKAS, Guard. Marty finally be­gan
to realize on his Freshman promise as a Junior
last Fall and won himself a letter. H e is one of the
~est boxers at Fordham and e ntered the Colden
Cloves two years ago.
FRANK PEZZELLA. Halfback. F rank, a stron g­legged
sophomore runner from Mount Vernon, is
apt to break in often at fullback this year. He
played well last Spring and it is likely that C rowley
will use him some even though Eshmont and Blu­menstock
are ahead of him. An outstanding golfer.
CLAUDE PIECULEWICZ. Quarterback. Brother
of C harlie Pieculewicz, star fullback of Major
Cavanaugh's 1928, '29 and '30 Fordham teams.
Latter two teams, incide ntally ,lost only one game
in two years. Peck has a chance to beat out For­tunato
fo r the second string quarterback's job as
he showed great blocking form in the Spring drills.
His hobby is fi shing.
PHILIP PLANCEMANN, Tac kle. Lack of speed
has held P hil back but he's not o bad pivotman as
the varsity players, who have been tackled by him
in practice scrimmages, will attest. Likes to read
Poe.
ANTHONY PONIATOWSKI. End. Tony was
on the sidelines with injuries as a Freshman last
Fall. Came to Fordham as a center but has been
s h ihed out to right end. C rowley considers him a
dark horse who could conceivably beat out Den·
nery for the second string role. His hobby is hik­ing.
One of the best tacklers on the squad.
DOMINIC PRINCIPE, Fullback. Since his first
major varsi:y game, against Pittsburgh in 193 7,
Dom has been regular fullback and one of the best.
Was the Ram's leading scorer and ground-gainer
during the unde feated 1937 season and last year
he finished fourth among the ball-carriers of the
land. Regular right-fielder on the baseball team
and elected captain in that sport for next year.
Looks like Charles Boyer. Good blocker and tack­ler.
Known as The Brock:on Bronco.
JOSEPH PRINCIPE, Halfback. Sophomore
b rother of Dom. Joe, despite an arm injury which
is all righ t now, showed up well in Spring practice
and is in the running a t right half. ot so power-ful
a runner as Dom but a little niftier. Once
place-kicked twenty-tour extra points in a row dur·
ing practice session, to win regular job at Brock­ton
High.
HENRY REIS, Fullback. Hank comes from
Ridgefield Pa rk (N. J.) and is a good basketball
player as well as a fair-to-middlin' fullback. Doesn't
rate to see much action this year with Dom Prin­cipe,
Friedgen and Davis ahead of him, but is a
good prospect for the future. H is hobby is rais­ing
pigeons. A good passer and place-kicker.
RAYMO D RIDDICK, End. Ray has been a
letter winner for two years. He is a good all­around
blocker, pass-receiver a nd defensive wing­man.
Likes to block. While he and Berczney were
in the game last year, Pittsburgh was s topped until
they both received injuries. A pretty good man
putting the shot. Likes to trap and hunt. Runner­up
to Kuzma n in the eating department.
LAWRENCE SARTORI, Guard. Larry is a big,
rugged sophomore, who has a c hance to make o ne
of the guard s lots. One of teh most versatile ath ­letes
o n the squad, he has participated in baseball,
basketball, hockey and boxing. Hobby is hit c h­hiking.
Played first base on Frosh nine.
A TH01 Y SERPE. Tac kle. Tony's lack of
speed is holding him up at present. Played foot­ball
and basketball at Archmere Academy. A
pretty good blocker in the line. His hobby is c ol­lecting
sports pictures.

ANNOUNCEMENT
In view of certain CTltiCJsm that h a s arisen dur·
ing the past few weeks since the opening of the
footba ll season at Tulane Stadium as a result of
some inconvenience caused the patrons through
e rection of the additions to the stadium and the
manner in which it has been necessary fo r the pa­trons
to enter at various gates, a stateme nt was
issued jointly today by Dr. Wilbur C. Smith, Di·
rector of Athletics of Tulane University, and Her­bert
A. Benson, President of the New Orleans Mid­W
inter Spor ts Association, who is a lso the archi­tect
of the enlargement of the stadium now under
way. Both Dr. Smith and Mr. Benson stated that
they are thoroughly in accord that the public should
have every consideration but feel that after a thor­ough
explanation of the many intricacies attendant
to the staging of large ball games and the handling
of tremendous crowds th a t a better understanding
would result th rou gh the issuance of such state·
ment and, at the same time, stated that they are
thoroughly appreciative of the understanding that
has been shown by many many thousands w ho have
been able to understand su ch problems and a re
cognizant of the great p iece of c ivic work being ac·
complished through the enlargement of the stadium.
The fu ll statement of Dr. Smith and Mr. Benson
fo llows:
We desire to respectfully express our sincere re·
grets for the temporary inconveniences to the pub·
lic, brought about by the stadium construction
work in progress. T hese inconveniences have
largely centered around t he inability to build direct
walks connecting the North (Barrett Street) and
South (Willow Street) ends of the stadium, both
on the East and West side s. Inasmuch as Tulane
drastically reduced ticket prices to permit as many
adults a nd children as possible to enjoy the great
1939 schedule, w e are sure that the public will
exercise patience and appreciation of these tem­porary
problems. We are a lso sure that all of our
people appreciate the new Tulane policy which
permits a greater turnou t than ever before of both
c hildren and adults to the games. We have like­wise
pushed the construction to the greatest pos·
sible extent, in order that we might cooperate in
making it possible for more children and high
school students to enjoy the games.
We are happy being able to announce that the
entire South (Willow Street) e nd of the stadium
will be ready this Saturday for the Tulane-Ford­ham
game, making it possible to throw that entire
new section of I 5,000 seats open to grammar
school and high school pupils. Tulane is changing
the high school seating arrangement, effective this
week, and at all remaining games this year to give
them more seating space, and at the same time to
accommodate more fans in.-the low priced reserved
seat sections at the North (Barrett Street) end.
Without direct walks .• which we have previously
referred to, connecting both the North (Barrett
Street) and South (Willow Street) ends, Tulane
has faced a very difficult seating problem, in view
of the fact that grammar school children, high
school students. Tulane-Newcomb students and
faculty, and the East and West side rese rved seat
ticket purchasers and box seat holders enter from
the South (Willow Street) end, which taxes this
street, its gates, and its ramp facilities to capacity.
4
In other words, Willow Street and its gates musr
take care of approximately 20,000 fans within a
p e riod of approximately forty-five minutes on the
Saturday of a big game.
It is estimated that on the Saturday of the
L. S. U. game, and possibly the Alabama and Ford­ham
games, that these gates on Willow Street will
be called upon to handle as many as 30,000 people.
It therefore becomes obvious that it would have
been impossible to handle the North (Barrett
Street) circle ticket holders through the Willow
Street e nd, in view of the absence of these direct
walks back of the East and West side stands to con·
nect the North (Barrett Street) circle with Wil­low
Street. Moreover, it would have added both to
the congestion a nd confusion to have permitted the
North circle ticket holders to have entered f rom
the Willow Street gate at the Clemson and Auburn
games, and then to have suddenly discontinued this
practice at the Fordham game, when the new high
school section will be ready for Tulane" s use.
We desire to express the hope that the public
will continue to demonstrate its patience and co­operation
with us in making the best of our pres
ent facilities, and feel sure that as soon as the sta­dium
construction is completed that everyone will
be thoroughly satisfied with the system of in gress
and egress.
We would a lso like to commen t brieRy upon the
new and modernized score board which has been
erected at the stadium. T h is score board was con·
structed only after a very careful survey of score
boards in the leading stadiums of the country and
is simila r to the boards in use at Michigan .• Illinois,
Yale, Northwestern, Notre Dame, the Yankee Sta­dium,
the Rose Bowl, and Polo Grounds, as well
as scores of o thers. T he old type of score board
has become outmoded because o f the modern pub­lic
address system and the inability to operate the
old type of board efficiently, due to the growing
custom of I 1-men eubstitutions several times dur­ing
a game.
We are confident that as soon as the New Or­leans
publ ic becomes accustomed to the present
type of score board, it will become p referred to
that which was fo rmerly in use in the stadium.
Of necessity, the top section of the present press
box will have to be removed to make room for the
new top double-decking of the West Side stand
a n d will be out of use for the approaching Tulane·
Fordham game, as well as the balance of the games
of this season so as to permit a complet ion of t he
stadium in t ime for the January I st Sugar Bowl
Classic. It is regrettable that th is inconvenience is
made n ecessary, particularly at this time when so
many visiting and prominent spor ts writers will be
here for the Fordham game. We know, however,
that these writers will appreciate the circumstances
that make t his inconvenience imperative and that
they together with the local writers who have been
so understandin g in all of our p roblems will uncom­plainingly
utilize the temporary p ress box set-up
at the remaining T u lane games, especially in reali­zation
that the new press box atop the top deck of
the West stand, that will have space for 250 writ­ers
comfortably seated, will, when p u t in use, be
one of the finest press boxes in the nation.
